The recent unlocking of the HTC Incredible S' bootloader made possible some astonishing feats, not the least of which is the possibility for custom ROMs. Cyanogen and his team have already gotten to work on that last part, and the fruits of their labor are nothing to scoff at: a nightly build of CyanogenMod 7 is now available for the Incredible S.

This article deals with a couple of advanced topics. If you’re unfamiliar with some of the terms, hit up our primers here:

Now, we should warn you that as this is a nightly build (a.k.a. a bleeding-edge release updated on a daily basis and posted for you to re-download every night) - and the first version available at that - bugs are to be expected. Ergo, if stability is what you need most, you should probably hold off for at least a few more days.

So, if you're ready to flash, first make sure your phone is rooted, then download the full 87MB file from the CyanogenMod servers and grab the Google Apps ZIP. Feel free to let us know how it goes in the comments!
